Updated on 30 August 2015
> Fixed the +20% PkHonor Points and PC points when killing the WildyWyrm solo (the bonus only worked for clans so far, my bad)
> Thieving stalls now gives double coin rewards
> Lowering any combat stat with ::setlevel (or with ::resetdef) is now completely free of charge. This includes attack, defence, strength, ranged, magic and hitpoints.
> Players can now start a Pest Control game on their own (in the past you needed at least 3 participants)
Updated on 29 August 2015
> Morrigan's javelins and throwing axes now cost 25 PkHonor Points per piece instead of 45. The corrupted versions now costs 15 instead of 35 PkHonor Points.
> Reverted the mouse click sensitivity update that was included in the 23 August update - this small change was supposed to make clicks easier to register, but instead made it worse. Due to players often clicking + dragging their mouse when fast clicking, the clicks often didn't properly register so this change has been reverted.
> Fixed a bug that caused multi-target attacks and spells to hit twice on larger NPC's
> Fixed a bug that caused barrows equipment to mess up your combat interface when equipped (in some cases making it impossible to autocast spells)
> You can now use the command ::r to quick reply personal messages (so for example you can type "::r good, how are you" to reply to your last message), this is mostly useful for people using the webclient, since the browser does not forward the "tab" key which is otherwise used to quick reply to PM's
> Fixed the zamorak statue part of the Last Journey quest
Note: the prices of javelins and throwing axes may be lowered a little more in the future, but we figured we'd be careful with lowering the prices too much.
Furthermore, due to the fact that the community is still divided on the topic of "allowing a player to revert their ironman mode account to normal status or not", I have decided that I will start implementing the mode without the ability to revert, but this may be added later on if we think this is appropriate and can't cause problems. However, the mode will be made as such that we can always decide to add the ability later on. For example, this means there will be no extra droprates or special perks for ironman mode players.
There is no current ETA on the release, but we'll be releasing it one feature at a time: at first, players will be able to create an ironman mode account with the restrictions (no trade, stake, drops, ...), but there will be no features, shop or highscores yet. Those will be added in future releases, so this way we can release the mode as soon as possible.
